There is a folder on a remote pc which I access through sftp. This folder has some strange file permissions because it self is on a mount (I think samba, but not sure). The permissions are: $ > ls -l $folder drwxrwxr-- 3 nobody nogroup $ > id nobody uid=65534(nobody) gid=65534(nogroup) groups=65534(nogroup) $ > id $USER uid=1020($USER) gid=100(users) groups=100(users) (If it was 777 I could delete it) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: I couldn't reproduce it, because I'm no admin of the pc and I couldn't manage it to reproduce it on one of my servers as there is no samba or cross mounting. Actual Results: Error Message: Internal Error Please send a full bug report at http://bugs.kde.org sftp://$USER@$SERVER/$PATH_TO_BROKEN_DIR Expected Results: Error Message: Access denied (As it appeares, when you delete a folder you don't have permissions to do this)
The parent folder mount looks like this: > $ mount /dev/mapper/msa20-storage on /mnt/storage type xfs (rw)
Thanks for the bug report! I'll reassign it to KIO-extras.
Do you think it was important that the remote directory was on a mount? The way I see it that should be all the same to ssh, in the end the permissions you documented would prevent you from deleting that folder on a POSIX level as well, so I would think that the access-denied error condition simply wasn't mapped to a pretty string in sftp. It is now however, so this should be solved in (at least) 19.12+
